Walleye, localy the most important important fish species, are moving into the shallow waters waters of our rivers and lake shorelines seeking out clean rubble and gravel over which to spawn. The fish's activity triggers the begining of another field season for the Kawartha Lakes Fisheries Assessment Unit. The Unit is part of the Lindsay district operations of the Ministry or Natural Resources. As soon as the ice starts to leave the lakes, field crews start turning winter plans into action. Monitoring spawning runs of adult walleye walleye at Bobcaygeon and Co- boconk are the first two projects projects the Unit conducts each year. Walleye, captured live in trap nets in both these locations, locations, arc measured, weighed and have a scale sample removed for age determination. determination. Only at this time of the year can male and females be easily distinguished. distinguished. It is important to collect biological data on the sexes separately because female female walleye are known to grow faster, larger and live longer than the males. The fish are checked for their general condition and given a mark on their dorsal fin. This mark is unique for each year and allows workers to determine in which year recaptured recaptured fish were originally marked. The walleye are then released to continue on their spawning journey. The information collected from these studies is analysed analysed and compared to other years. In this way trends indicating indicating that the numbers or the sizes of fish are changing can be determined. From our previous studies, we anticipate anticipate catching about 2000 walleye at Bobcaygeon and 500 at Coboconk. Monitoring the walleye spawning populations in these areas is a vitally important important part of ensuring healthy fish populations for future generations.
